Michel Petrucciani - Satin Doll download song

I kneel in front of the divine... Nothing else to express my huge admiration for this extraordinary and unique Artist...

In tears... he played as if he KNEW time was running out, so he wanted to play EVERY NOTE and play them all beautifully... and perfectly... even the imperfections...

Michel Pretrucciani's album with Jim Hall and Wayne Shorter (The Power of Three) is outstanding. Highly recommended listening.

I love you. Michel. forever.

In the crowded World of solo jazz piano, he stood out.

I have watched three videos thus far on this genius of a pianist. And for as much as I love jazz this man was a true icon. I am saddened that I never got the chance to see him perform at all. But the legacy of music and inspiration that he left behind is beyond any words that I can express. I am actually teary eyed because you can  really feel what he is playing...sigh. I have to go out and buy his recorded works. I had never experienced or heard of Michel Petrucciani until I was thumbing through a book called "Icons Of Jazz": A History "In Photographs 1900-2000 by Dave Gelly who is also a jazz tenor saxophonist. There are so many jazz musicians that I admire , respect and adore. Michel Petrucciani R.I.P. In 1977 the great American trumpeter Clark Terry was touring in France and was introduced to Michel. Clark Terry could not believe what he was hearing and hired Michel and at the time he was only 15. 

Why must someone always put a negative comment about the negative votes? Who cares? Mmm.. I hope I don't start a trend of posting negative comments about people who put negative comments about negative votes...

"Whatever I love him just the same"???
